Hi Beth,

There is a short article about their use in induction for Coleg Ceredigion at
http://www.inf.aber.ac.uk/news/backissues/nov08.asp ('Alternative Inductions for Coleg Ceredigion students').
Also a blog post about their use at Coleg Gwent here:
http://blogs.rsc-wales.ac.uk/lr/2007/11/14/case-study-of-the-cps-voting-system-at-coleg-gwent-pontypool-campus-learning-centre/
 
I have one or two other examples (e.g. one from Aberystwyth University) - let me know if they might be of use and I will email them to you as attachments.
 
Some of the main AR systems can be seen in this Delicious account: http://delicious.com/rscwales/voting_systems
 
Best wishes,
 
Karl Drinkwater

Subject: Classroom Clickers?


Hi all,

I just wondered if anyone had any experience of using classroom clickers at their institutions, either to support information literacy sessions or wider academic teaching? At SOAS, we are tentatively looking into clickers to support information skills sessions and we would be interested to hear from anyone who has experience of using clickers.

Just in case you haven't heard about clickers before, City University have a good introductory web page http://www.city.ac.uk/ldc/learning_tech/prs/index.html
(thanks to City!)

Beth
